Meet the Founder
With over 20 years in the mortgage industry, Jason Quinney has spent his career doing what the best loan officers do — building relationships, solving complex problems, and finding a way to close. He's worked residential and commercial deals, led production teams, and originated across conventional, FHA, VA, and commercial products. He knows the grind intimately.
He also knows the frustration. Years of arguing with underwriters over income calculations that should never have been in dispute. Watching deals stall — or worse, fall apart — because of a miscalculated figure on a business tax return. Seeing talented loan officers lose confidence on complex self-employed files, and lenders absorb costly buybacks from errors that technology should have prevented a decade ago.
That frustration became a mission. Jason founded Keythos on a simple but powerful idea: take every quality that makes an exceptional loan officer exceptional — deep income knowledge, sharp marketing instincts, strong client communication, mastery of guidelines — and make those qualities accessible to every mortgage professional on the platform.
QualifyIQ gives loan officers who struggle with complex income the precision of someone who's lived it for 20 years. The Marketing Suite and CRM give originators who aren't natural marketers the tools to stay in front of clients like the top producers do. Keythos doesn't replace the loan officer — it takes the average to good, and the good to great.
Jason built the company he wished had existed at the start of his career — and he's building it for everyone still in the trenches.
